He was a player at Duke. Good pickup, I think he gets involved right away. Obviously a great football pedigree with his father and two brothers.
I would have liked to have seen Bryan Walters.

Think of him as a younger, taller version

With what is available who would you have liked to see instead?

Well we are looking for a one year guy here so you could have gone for Victor Cruz, Eddie Royal, Stevie Johnson, Cecil Shorts, Percy Harvin, Convince Jordon Norwood to un-retire. Even look at Bryan Walters like others have said. Of course I don't know the health of these guys but they would be better IMO than a guy who cant even make a team in the past 4 years.
Safe Hands Walters would have been my pick.

Literally every one of the guys you mentioned are either injured, washed or retired. And this is Max's 2nd year in the NFL? What are you even talking about four years? He tore up Packers training camp this year and was cut due to numbers.

Well we will just have to do the lets wait and see what happens. Hey I am down for eating crow if this guy pans out to be productive.

Family history is overrated. Over and over again I see sons who are not nearly as good as their dads and brothers who have totally different careers. Christian will be very good, but I can't make a similar prediction for everyone with the last name McCaffrey. It happened in the Matthews family, with Casey being nowhere near as good as anyone named Clay.
Also, does it really matter that he went to Duke or are you just stating a fact?
Justin Blackmon is available...
I have never seen this guy play so I can't comment on him.
I'm one of those who'd have welcome Bryan Walters back: reliable, gets open, safe hands. Curious to see this new guy now.
4.4 speed take the top off the D

Just stating fact and I'm the rare Duke football fan, so I witnessed much of it. He's always open and always makes the catch and not just in the typical white boy kind of way. He has legit 4.3 speed. Our WRs dropped a few catchable balls to be sure on Sunday. For all you that said Walters, think of his hands but in a bigger and more mobile frame, that's mccaffrey.
I like the signing he's not a rookie and he can return punts and play ST, plus have good bloodlines

Thanks a lot for telling us more about this guy!

I dont think Walters was eligible to come back to the Jaguars since we waived injured him back when he was cut
Well, the Jags do have a knack for finding jewels at WR.
